Spring?

It was cloudy and funky looking yesterday and a bit on the cold side even though the sun kept popping in and out of the clouds.
Today is rain, rain and more rain. Along with this lovely wet stuff came thunder and lightning. It's supposed to stay this way until tomorrow. Oh, joy.
So much for Spring ans warmth...

Just Shoot Me

Insert favorite swear words here!
Last night I reread the previous post about moving Itunes to an external hard drive and went through with it. Moving the files was okay but that was all that was okay.
Once moved I plugged in my daughters Ipod and that's when it all went south.
Itunes tells me that the Ipod can only be synched to one computer and this isn't it! What???
Okay I panicked. I removed the Ipod and moved the files back to their original location. I plugged the Ipod back in and got the same error message. Oh, crud.
So, now my daughter's Ipod can no longer be synched. How wonderful. Not!
Damn you Apple and Itunes!

Medical Scrubs

It is Spring. I can tell because the weather is getting slightly warmer and the sun seems a bit brighter outside my window. Nice weather it is out there.
Time to get rid of the heavy duty clothing and think about lighter gear, something you can be comfortable. Something like medical scrubs.
Do not scoff at that statement. Have you ever seen a nurse or doctor pulling at their clothing trying to get that 'just right" fit? Me neither. they always look comfortable in those scrubs they wear.
And these days the medical scrubs are not just plain old white or some other color. Heck they even come with cartoon favorites on them like Garfield or Minnie Mouse. They even have this one that resembles a jigsaw puzzle:



Jump on over to the website and check out all the nice scrub tops and bottoms available. they have large sizes too in case you haven't lost those extra Winter pounds.

Just For Myself

Found this online and will need it later:

Absolutely
And it's easy to do. Simply move your entire Itunes Library (generally your "My Music" folder on Windows) to the external hard drive while Itunes is shut down. Bring up Itunes, then reconnect to that library on the external drive. That's all there is to it. Remember, of course, that you need that drive connected all the time to update podcasts, and when syncing your Ipod.

Enjoy.

Big Agnes

Sorry folks, but no, this is not about any of my ex-girlfriends named Agnes. this is about Big Agnes tents. Very nice tents and accessories they are too.
Summer is coming and for many that means it's time to go camping. Whether those plans mean going high up into the mountains or simply hanging out by a lake, Big Agnes has a tent for you. These tents are ultralight, meaning they are much less bulky and easier to carry than the old traditional tents. If you are a backpacker and love the mountains you will appreciate the lighter weight.
Whether your needs are for just one person or a group of six people Big Agnes has you covered (pun intended) with the right tents as well as the right sleeping bags. Whatever your camping needs are be sure to check the products that Big Agnes has to offer you. Then get ready to plan your greatest backpacking/camping trip ever.

Strange People

We get some really odd people in our game lobby. People that have managed to bypass the names filter so they can use profanity (does them no good, we turn them in for anme changes anyways) to people that just wish to be deleted.
Today we had both lol. The first one was named fucitfucit. No K but the implication is clear. He will not be back without a name change.
The second one just wanted to spam the chat lobby with the lovely message of "Die all". He did it over and over and over until the Mod on duty could get the boot open and kick him. He won't be wishing us anything for the next 3 days lol
Seems a shame to waste your own time, the time of many others as well, just to show the world that you are stupid. But, hey, it takes all kinds to make the world go around.

Electrosurgery

Years ago when I was a young man surgeons did operations when they had to, not necessarily because they wanted to. Perhaps this is because they only had their hands and their scalpels and other cutting instruments to depend on. Or perhaps it is because we were not as surgery happy a society as we are today.
Today things are different. More surgeries are being performed and the instruments are much more precise. Instruments of electrosurgery for example are very precise instruments. Using these instruments a doctor or dentist can make a precise cut with a minimum of blood loss. This is great for both patients and doctors.
I remember as a teenager getting my tonsils out and it took a lot longer because the doctor cut them and I bled like crazy. He had difficulties in finishing up the job and still managing to keep from bleeding to death. I felt really bad for him because i wasn't a bleeder and I have no idea what happened that would cause me to bleed so much unless he cut them tonsils incorrectly somehow. If he had had these electrosurgery tools that job would have been simpler, easier, and quicker.
There are tools that use this technology that cover your entire body, from head to toe. So, next time you are having a surgery procedure done ask the doctor if he intends on using these tools. If he is, you can rest assured that the cutting done will be very precise.
